- She’s truly our daughter…
So poor baby has not been sleeping well and cranky all week, and today we discovered that she has a yucky rash all over her body. Hyunnie has VERY sensitive skin, and can only use certain laundry detergents (Tide Free powder version, not liquid) and a certain kind of diaper cream (A&D, not Desitin). Fortunately […]
- Adventures of Hyunnie & Mommy
We had quite the eventful day today… it all started when I fell asleep while Hyunnie was watching her Praise Baby DVD. This actually happens pretty often, mainly b/c I am so exhausted in the mornings. Well, when I woke up, the first thing I saw was that there was poo everywhere on the bed!!!! […]
- Baby No More
Our Hyunnie turned 18 months old today… We are officially calling her a toddler now as she really is toddling around quite well We were so worried that she would be crawling to kindergarten, but when she was good and ready she decided that she would like to walk. We’re also joking with her […]
- about one year ago…

Things that I am super […]

Hallelujah - we got our USCIS approval for Hyunjung to come to the U.S.!!!!! Thank the LORD! Sol and I were skyping as usual today, when he said, wait - let me check the mail. When he came back on skype, he was opening a letter. I said, “Did we get it? Did we get […]
- Transitions
I’ve been in Korea 2 weeks with Hyunjung and it already feels like it’s been forever! Everyday is so bittersweet - filled with joyful moments of bonding with my baby girl and also filled with sadness that Sol’s not here to share them. I am praying everyday that our paperwork gets approved in the U.S. […]
- God is faithful to His promises…
Today we heard a sermon that reminded us no matter how disappointed we may be with certain outcomes in our lives, God is always faithful to His promises and His purposes are always good. And that doesn’t necessarily mean that things turn out the way we want them to… or think we want them to.
I’m […]
